Location
Woodridge Estate, Thredbo Village, New South Wales

Thredbo is nestled into the Kosciuszko National Park between Sydney and Melbourne, and can be reached from both cities (by car) by first taking the Hume Highway (approx 5 hours). Join the famous Kosciuszko Alpine Way just before Canberra (coming from Sydney) or at Albury-Wodonga (coming from Melbourne).

The Kosciuszko Alpine Way is a scenic route rivalling the beauty of the Great Ocean Road, and is a Sydney to Melbourne alternative to the Hume Highway. This road may be impassable due to snow in winter so check prior to travel and ensure you carry snow chains in case you are required to use them.

Jindabyne is the gateway to the snow fields and the road is passable with care in all conditions but snow chains must be carried.

Coach transfers can be arranged in conjunction with your accommodation. Just ask us!!
